To A Friend Poem by Wakefield Mahon

To a friend, my confidant,
My shelter from the storm
Your smile as bright as sunny day
Both welcoming and warm
To the one who's proud of me
My triumphs great and small
To the one who's always there
To catch me when I fall
I wish to you the best in life
Wherever you may go
May God's light and countenance
Shine and help you grow
May your days be radiant
Your soul as free as air
The company of friends like you
Always find you there
To my companion constant
Like my God above
I give you my heartfelt thanks
And everlasting love
